WHAT IS A KEYGROUP?

A KEYGROUP is precisely that - a group of keys which have a particular note range on

the keyboard. The simplest program you can have is with one keygroup in it that spans

the entire MIDI range on C0-G8. The TEST PROGRAM that always boots up into the

S3000XL is just such a program. I.e:

KEYGROUP 1

Perhaps the next level up is to have a program with two keygroups. One covers the range

C0-B2, the other C3-G8 - this would be a simple keyboard split. I.e:

KEYGROUP 1 KEYGROUP 2

The next level may be a program which has five keygroups - one for each octave on a

normal synth keyboard. Such a program may be useful for something like piano or strings

which have been sampled on the G of every octave. I.e:

KG1 KG2 KG3 KG4 KG5

After that, of course, it’s anyone’s guess what the next level may be but it could be

something like this:

Here we have 17 keygroups in one program - some are assigned to individual keys whilst

some span an octave or so. Hopefully, you can now get a feel for how flexible the

keygroup assignment can be. But there can be more to it than that.
